The Role As an AI Consultant, you will work directly with senior business stakeholders to understand their challenges, identify opportunities for AI adoption, and configure AI-driven solutions that deliver real business value. This is a highly client-facing role where curiosity, communication and commercial thinking are just as important as technical ability.
